My Dearest, Dearest Sister

My dearest, dearest sister,
My life went black
When you left me behind.
I kept asking;
When will you come 
Back for me?

My dearest, dearest sister,
Where are you?
Are you in Heaven?
Perhaps even Hell.
Do you remember me,
Your brother?
I was almost four,
You were only 18 months.
Every night I cried.
I missed you.
I now realize it,
You're not coming back.
